That kind of data should be public anyways.
- alt227 6mo agoYeah, as long as all 500,000 people in the data set agreed for it to be public then thats fine. But how do we verify that?
- Ylpertnodi 6mo agoThey're on the list, their information is out there. Isn't that what 'opt in' means?
- subscribed 6mo agoThat's a quite.... astonishing* take. If I leak your medical information you confidentially shared it with your doctor that means you are okay with it because you opted in for that? Or does the scope / details do not matter for others, but only matter for your data. *I have much better word but I guess I should say it.
- PunchTornado 6mo agoWhen i signed up as a volunteer they assured me it was not going to be public, only veted researchers allowed to access it.
- subscribed 6mo agoBut it's nonconsensual, contrary to the laws and contract. Should or shouldn't in general, but THIS one database shouldn't.
